002 [A Stitch in Time]
[Susan is curled up in an armchair from the TARDIS Library. She has a bag of knitting materials on the floor next to her, a half completed stripy hat on her lap and, more importantly, a frown on her face. Rather than dwelling on some of the unpleasant thoughts that have surfaced since she arrived on the Plane, she's trying to honour a casually made - and, now she's spent some time on it, extremely foolish - promise.
Carefully, she studies the pattern book resting on the arm of the chair.
Victoria was so much better at this. She’d taught the other girl about the universe and the stars, and, in return, the Victorian girl had taught her how to knit. Susan is starting to realise that it might have been an unfair exchange...]
Oh!
[She puts down the needles and sighs.]
I prefer mathematics.
